Portable batting system

Abstract

A batting practice system having a base flange which can be attached to a chain link fence or a support pole. Attached to the flange is a horizontal support member with a tip at the end to which is attached a rope with a ball on the end. The base flange also has apertures to which resilient cords, such as "bungee" cords may be attached to stabilize the base.

What I claim as my invention is: 
     
       1. A batting practice system, comprising a base having means for attaching a horizontal element to said base,   said horizontal element having a member with a vertical portion attached thereto,   said vertical portion being hollow and attached to said horizontal portion at substantially a right angle,   a flexible element passing completely through said vertical portion and said horizontal portion, and   a ball attached to one end of said flexible element,   said base having means for securing resilient bands thereto, and   resilient bands secured to said base at one end and secured to a support at an opposite end.   
     
     
       2. The batting practice system as claimed in claim 1, wherein said means for attaching a horizontal element to said base is a relatively flat plate with a central aperture therethrough, said horizontal element being secured within said central aperture.   
     
     
       3. The batting practice system as claimed in claim 1, wherein said means for securing resilient bands to said base is three apertures extending through said base.
